> Hello,

Thanks for the useful information.

1- Can you please tell me if Etot is the very Upot in the equations stated
in "g_energy -h" and also 'potential' in the list of g_energy terms? I mean
is 'potential"=internal energy?

 2-  To get the enthalpy in NPT run: one needs to substract pv (listed in
g_energy) from 'potential' (in g_energy terms)?

3- Since gromacs gives units in mol of systems, divinding by no. of
molecules (g_energy  -nmol ) should give values per mole of molecules. Now I
am wondering for multicomponent system how -nmol should be set? Say there
are 2 A, 50 B and 1000 C molecules? Is gromcas able to calculate mixture
properties?

I appreciate your help.
Best,
moeed
